Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has confirmed that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will not play against Leeds on Saturday.
Aubameyang continues to be unavailable for selection, after being stripped of the club captaincy earlier this week.
The Gabon striker has been removed from the role because of his “latest disciplinary breach”.
The 32-year-old was consequently left out of the squad for the 2-0 win over West Ham on Wednesday, and will not make his return to face Marcelo Bielsa’s side on Saturday.
“No, he’s not available for selection,” said Arteta on Friday.
When pressed on whether the striker has a future at the north London club, Arteta reiterated: “For this game, he’s not available for selection.”
